America’s epitaph was released
today by a Supreme Court that is out of touch with reality. Inherent to their
decision that favored the Obama Administration’s viewpoint on health care was a
lack of insight concerning the contents of legislation that is now known as
Obamacare. It appears that the justices did not spend the time necessary to digest
the intricacies of a document that could confound the intellect of the best
minds. The high court’s opinion that Congress has a right and a duty to force
an American citizen to purchase a product and or service gives this body a new mandate
to coerce other purchases. Several hundred pages of convoluted legalese encompassed
the nine judges varied opinions. Some of their writings read as though copied
from a book Stalin and Mao would have approved. In the event the justices had read
through the 2700 pages of this monstrous health legislation they would have
seen that Obamacare undermines the economy, removes freedom of choice us from
the health care environment, allows more sanctions and penalties than health
initiatives and provides a thousand new ways for lawyers to enrich themselves. The
mega mind we call Chief Justice said the following, “It is not our role to
forbid it or pass upon its wisdom or fairness.” What is your role Justice
Roberts?To let stand legislation that
will force closure of thousands of small businesses, allow the government to
determine who lives and who dies, open the flood gates to tens of thousands of
lawsuits, force health providers to provide less services or be sanctioned and
give free health care to tens of millions who could and should pay their own
way. America was kicked in the backside today by black robed individuals who will
not be affected by their own rulings. Had that been the case the vote would
have been 9-0 against this idiotic piece of work.Worse they reinvented the word “force.”Tyrannies force people to perform certain
acts and functions not democracies. The definition of democracy is fading fast
thanks to the power hungry in a party that should have moved into obsolescence
a long time ago. America’s Democratic Party equates well with its socialized
equivalents in Europe and Asia. To undo the damage caused today, a major
cleansing of Washington must be performed this November via the ballot box.
Vote right because the left will give you more of the same. Mark Davis MD,
author of the book that predicted much of the strife now occurring, Demons of Democracy.

Joe McCarthy chased the
shadows of communism in the mid twentieth century. From his delusional Senate pulpit
hundreds of careers were interrupted and or destroyed by his accusations that
subversives were rampant throughout the government, private industry and
Hollywood. Ultimately discredited, he died early in the solitude he created for
himself. Joe’s career may have taken a different twist had he survived to
confront the Obama Administration. A new breed of politician has moved into the
corridors of power in Washington D.C. This new species cares little for the
flock who put them in power represented by the oppressive laws and economic
strife they have inflicted on the nation. McCarthy would have found many
reasons to question the values, patriotism and proclivities of those who
believe democracy and constitutional intent is for the other guy not them. Confrontation
and division are Obama’s chosen tools to undermine a nation already in flux by
his diversionary tactics. Socialism has many shades which are now competing with
the remnants of democratic principles that once ruled the playing field.
Supreme Court’s recent decision on Arizona’s immigration policy was a mixed
blend of liberal and conservative approaches to a long festering problem, which
has led to another of Obama’s Anti-American interventions. Left intact in the
high Court’s decision was a provision allowing the police to stop potential
illegals if there is probable cause. Obama, unhappy with their decision,
immediately informed Arizona that it will not cooperate with legitimate law
enforcement activities against our guests from the south. ICE and other Federal
agencies will be instructed not to respond to Arizona officials in their
attempts to manage the state’s vast illegal alien problem. Obama and his crazed minions essentially told
Arizona that his administration will cherry pick which laws to enforce that
suit their agenda. Obama is now on
record that he is willing to displace American citizens from jobs, colleges,
civil service posts and more in favor of foreigners. Our radical leader has
consistently invented schemes to bring about an end to American ideals,
traditions and institutions. By his own actions the President has displayed an
intense disloyalty to a flag that elevated him to his present position. The
White House guest list reads like a who’s who of the left. Radicals, social deviants,
mentally deranged individuals, left of the left celebrities and foreign
visitors whose loyalties lie somewhere between Marx and Mao have been
entertained by Obama at our expense. Joe McCarthy’s downfall was he was born at
the wrong time and went after the wrong people. Perhaps an incarnation of this
man will have the cojones to challenge the President and his contingent of social
thugs on the draconian rules they have put in place. America’s present culture
has taken a hit in the last three years by interventions that turn the country
away from the Founders intent. More importantly, Obama is introducing new
cultural mores that curtail many of the liberties we have taken for granted. Few
have come forward to challenge the President’s ambitions to alter America’s
social fabric, even fewer perceive the changes coming. This election will
determine if the American brand stands or becomes obsolete in the next ten
years. Vote right or don’t vote at all this Fall. Mark Davis MD author of

With all the elements of a
Where is Waldo scenario in play one can ask: where has President Obama been for
the last 42 months. With 100 golf games under his belt, three months can be
immediately subtracted from his tenure in office. Factoring in air time between
a thousand destinations another four months can be accounted for. Rarely
appearing on the weekends for government business, ten more months can be
removed from his accountability chart. Vacations, holidays and of course
parties summate to another four months away from important concerns of the
people. Always the campaigner to collect the big bucks two months could be
attributed to this activity. Respect for the office of the president has eroded
under Obama because he does not respect it himself. Government business has
become secondary to his personal agenda. Faced with the possibility of being a
one term Waldo, he has taken every opportunity to use the perks of his office
whenever he can. His achievements can be counted on one hand, his detriments on
a dozen. Obama’s proclivity to move against the will of the majority so the
lesser can bathe in government largesse is evident throughout the country. Yet
his entitlement mentality has caused great strife among those who pay the
bills. Stagnation is seen in the job market because Obama’s harsh regulatory
structure and his cozy relationship with the legal profession suppress any
attempt by the private sector to revitalize itself. The President has displayed
no leadership to enable the country to move out of its economic doldrums. In
the event he is not flying off to George Clooney’s house, he is finding a way to
stifle business growth. America will soon be known as the only country that
manufactures nothing. Echoed through thousands of news reports are predictions
of doom and gloom Obamacare will bring to bear on the population. In some
quarters hysteria would be a better description. Recently it was reported that
Obama wants a second term to repair the mess he caused in the first. His slogan
for his second term is “vote for me and get everything free.” Obama was never
ready for prime time, not only does he lack the leadership skills to be
president, his intellectual abilities have come into question. America did not
elect a leader in 2008. Led by guilt and a sense of fairness Obama was elevated
to high office without being fully vetted by a fawning media. Obama’s poor
performance is defended daily by a media that sees evil in anything a conservative
exhorts. The left cannot hide the government’s own statistics that some
segments of the economy have moved to near depression levels of productivity
under Obama’s tight grasp. In the event words have any meaning this president
is overwhelmed by the challenges of his office. The time has come to show him
the door. Vote right in November or do not vote at all. Mark Davis MD, author

Obama’s lawless behavior
has become evident in the last six days with the release of two Executive
Orders which circumvent constitutional intent and function. Congress has
already forbid illegal immigrant retention by voting down the Dream Act. With a
style that has become all his own Obama stealthily maneuvered around his first
defeat using Executive Privilege to accomplish that which was denied him through
lawful means, implementing his own Dream Act by fiat. Obama muddied the waters
even further this week by asserting Executive Privilege a second time. Eric
Holder, the worst Federal Attorney General in American history, has been
withholding documents from Congress that could implicate him and even the President
in the Fast and Furious debacle. Though Holder promised to deliver these year
old requests in the last few days apparently he was purposely stalling for
Obama to arrange a cover up which came this morning. Executive Privilege has
been used by many presidents under varying circumstances, yet it has never been
asserted within minutes of contempt charges being filed against the chief
guardian of democracy, the Attorney General himself. Obama and his minions are
running scared or they would never have waited until the 11th hour
to act. The question on everyone’s minds is: What is in the documents the
President and Eric Holder refuse to deliver to congressional investigators.
Your intrepid reporter smells another Watergate scandal brewing which could
undo this already failing presidency. Obama’s rogue behavior extends far beyond
these newest deviations from the rule of law. His legislations, mandates and
executive edicts have kept thousands of lawyers busy churning paper in an
attempt to protect the intricate fallacies built into each one. Obama’s
monstrous health legislation is illicit for more reasons than just the mandate
now before the Supreme Court. It breaks new boundaries to control people’s
lives on an unprecedented scale. Obama never managed a lemonade stand, yet he
manages one of the largest economies in the World and now your health as well.
His arrogance is so profound that he levied veiled threats against the Supreme
Court if they do not vote his way. Worse he is planning to implement parts of
the legislation in the event he loses in the high Court. Will this take the form
of a series of Executive Orders, no one knows. From all resources available few
if anyone in Obama’s life has said “No” to him, until now. His solution, turn a
no into a yes through Executive Orders. Obama’s rogue behavior will only
intensify in a 2nd term. Vote right in November or don’t vote. Mark

Central to any regimented diet program is
the ability to control intake. Utilizing calories to construct meal plans is
awkward, time consuming and usually does achieve the desired results. Weight loss
programs that institute portion limitations within the structure of their
regimens are far superior to those that depend on calorie counts to achieve
their goals. In order to provide the best guidance to a dieter knowing the
difference between portion size and serving size is a must. Portions are the
amount of food on your plate. Servings are a predetermined amount of food
measured by common methods such as cups, teaspoons or other measuring devices.
Common to most dieters is their portion sizes are larger than their physical
requirements. The body will only burn a percentage of food intake, the rest is
stored in areas dieters would rather not discuss. For many supersizing their
portions is occurring in and outside their favorite eateries. To support this
thesis a quick trip to your local hamburger establishment will confirm that
every third meal served is supersized. Usually this means the fries and the
soda move from regular to enormous proportions doubling the caloric content of
an already calorie intense meal. Recently a controversy in New York City made
national headlines. Mayor Bloomberg decided he was going to interject his two
cents concerning the City’s major obesity problem. His methodology sodas and
other drinks dispensed from restaurants cannot exceed 16 ounces. This mandate
met with a furor within the confines of New York and stirred a national debate.
Should the government use its powers to limit your food intake, the legal
challenge is yet to play out. Portion size is the control point where obesity
starts and the mayor is on the right path, yet personal choice should not be
micromanaged by any government agency. Precluding government interference,
there are hundreds of diet programs in existence, but few have made the grade
because they are too cumbersome manage. Weight Watchers uses a point system which
attaches numbers to foods and foods groups. This approach does not preclude
eating unhealthy foods as long as they equate to the point allocations in their
diet regimen. Programs based on caloric estimations alone tend not to be as
successful as those utilizing visual cues to estimate serving sizes. The
Millenium Diet has been very popular because it emphasizes serving size based
on a select group of foods to encourage expeditious weight reduction.

Presently most commercial food containers,
boxes or bags are labeled both in ounces and grams. Serving sizes are also
clearly marked with one caveat who does these portions apply to, a 250 pound
male or a 110 pound female. The latter information is not available so it is
not as valuable as the weight measures. An average cereal bowl is 12 ounces,
one cup measure is 8 ounces, a tablespoon ½ ounce and a teaspoon 1/6 of an
ounce. With these measures a diet regimen can enumerate portion sizes in a
logical manner. To enable those who frequent restaurants comparative measures by
visual cues is extremely helpful to limit portion size. A slice of bread or ½
of a bagel comes close to the size of an index card. One half cup of cooked
rice or pasta is close in volume to a billiard’s ball. One quarter cup of
raisins, apricots or nuts approaches an average size egg. A cup of peas and
carrots or green vegetables displaces the volume of a baseball. Four to six
ounces of meat or fish is defined by the palm of your hand with a thickness of
½ inch. Three ounces of meat or fish can be compared to a normal deck of cards.
Two tablespoons of nuts, seeds or rice is close in volume to a ping pong ball.
A teaspoon of margarine is a size of one die. Imperfect as these crude measures
are they have worked for millions to reduce weight and maintain it. Avoid
double portions, supersizing, seconds, double scoops or triple scoops. Buffets
are an anathema to the dieter, stay away. Diets constructed with portions as
the central core of their regimens are the most successful I have seen over a
three decade period. Pre-portioned mail order programs may be helpful in one
sense but many times contain foods that are unhealthy. For a very successful
program that emphasizes portion control in rational format review, The
Millenium Diet, The Practical Guide for Rapid Weight Loss. This program was
built on the experiences of thousands of dieters over a ten year period.
Whichever regimen you decide make sure it is adaptable to your lifestyle,
economically sound and has a long history that it works.Mark Davis MD, platomd@gmail.com

Neither proper decorum nor
the publishers of this news site would permit me to express appropriate outrage
at Bill Maher’s recent verbal assaults on Governor Romney’s religion and
candidacy for president. Perhaps Bill Maher is a victim of shaken baby syndrome
or some other traumatic event in which he incurred neurological damage
otherwise his outbursts should not go unaddressed. Atheism is well known to Bill
Maher who claims to be a devout immoralist. Mormonism challenges people to be
better human beings. Family values are at the core of many of its teachings.
Romney’s life reflects one of strength, much of it drawn from his success as a
father, husband and community leader. Atheism teaches hate, weakness, moral
lassitude, denigration of others and most important the denial of the obvious,
the existence of God.Atheism is more
than a cult, it is a disease which has deeply affected Bill Maher’s mind. As a
devout Obama supporter he trusts that the government will do a better job
managing healthcare than the present system. Bill forgot that he was quoted, in
reference to the swine flu vaccine, that he did not trust the government,
especially with his healthcare. Obamacare’s tentacles will affect the wealthy
elite such as himself in manners he cannot conceive.His obvious hatred for family and women
strongly represents itself in a lifestyle replete with inconsistent
relationships, abandonments and inability to understand the value of the family
unit. As a political pugilist, he believes Obama has a more profound sense in
managing the economy than a man who has an exceptional record as governor and
extremely successful business leader. Maher’s attempt to stir controversy
during this election cycle could be seen in his many recent irrational
comments. Accusing Matt Drudge’s website of racism by referencing several
pictures of black men without their accompanying stories displays his own
desperation for recognition. Maher took the photos out of context to strengthen
his aspersions against a conservative news site. Bill Maher’s career never got
off the ground. Overpaid for his political punditry, Bill’s HBO show is watched
by few and liked by even fewer. In essence he has done society a favor by not
procreating, the World will be better off without more of the same from a man
who is going nowhere fast. Mark Davis, author of Demons of Democracy.

History will record that
the current denizen in the White House was on a mission from day one to inhibit
liberty and democracy whenever the chance arose. President Obama’s toxic
ideology to subvert democratic principles and constitutional authorities is
evident throughout his 41 month tenure. Alexis de Tocqueville roamed the
American stage in the 19th century, he was the first person to
observe the exceptional position this newest democracy maintained because of
the intrinsic freedoms it had politically, economically and geographically.
Obama’s open distaste for the private sector and his obvious intent to
undermine every institution, industry and tradition that strengthens the
American spirit is the antithesis of Tocqueville’s representation of this
nation. Exceptionalism is a concept that describes a unique set of factors that
coalesce into the nation Obama encountered on his elevation to the Presidency.
Freedom, equality, individualism, a perpetual push to improve one’s condition
and other related elements have been stifled under an administration that sees
only darkness at every turn. America cannot function under a daily barrage of
uncertainties inflicted on the population by an inept leader and his gang of socialist
thugs. Markets, industries and higher centers of thought need a stable
environment in which to function and grow, Obama offers only conflict and
despair. A world watches as the model nation is remolded into a product quite
different than its Founders original intent. Second to none in space travel,
the United States is now second to everyone. America’s historical proclivity to
design, build and manufacture has been irrevocably harmed by quiet hands in
poorly lit corridors of government agencies. Under Obama battalions of lawyers
have constructed intricate legal structure to undermine free speech, religion,
land ownership, internet utilization, marriage, national defense, health care
and the economic management of the nation. Exceptionalism moves to strengthen
all it touches, Obama’s ideology smothers this concept by micromanaging systems
that naturally produce these strengths. America is not special anymore. As a
nation we have become weak, unfocused and third rate. Obama knows exactly what
the repercussions of his fallacious programs have on the nation, yet neither he
nor his celebrity groupies care about the end result, a failed nation. November
will determine the course the nation will take for the next decade and beyond.

Tens of thousands of
Maryland children are being forced to take psychotropic and mood enhancing drugs
for diagnoses that border on the edge of medical malpractice. Falsely labeled
with titles such as ADD, ADHD, Autism and its various equivalents, physicians
are shoveling these drugs to children at alarming rates. Misdiagnosis, over
diagnosis, diagnoses of convenience and other more egregious reasons to provide
children with these poisons are commonplace within the confines of Maryland and
beyond. From the elite institutions to the corner family physician each has
played a role in destroying the minds of these kids. Psychiatrists, family
physicians, internists and an entire spectrum of other physicians do not give a
second thought to providing these medications, never considering the short or
long term consequences to those most vulnerable. Those who are supposedly experts
in these psychiatric modes rapidly admit they do not know the causes of the
symptoms derived from these ailments. Justification for dispensing of these
drugs varies with behavior problems at the top of the list. Parents, educators,
social workers, juvenile counselors, judges and sundry others claim there is marked
improvement is grades, attitude and social compliance with daily aspects of
living when children are maintained on these neurological therapies never
exploring other reasons for these behaviors. Children who are disinterested in
school, keep to themselves, are introverted, are so called special kids and
other creative labels by the psych-pharmaceutical industry have had therapies
concocted to save these kids from their own worst behaviors. Many children are
being maintained on three or more of these drugs. Kids on medical assistance
and or living in foster homes are pumped full of these mind altering
medications with a higher frequency than those not represented in these two
groups. Even more alarming Autism rates are at incredible levels in Maryland compared
to the rest of America and even the World. Statistics on the World stage
indicate an incidence of 1 to 2 cases per thousand, in Maryland 1 per 80 is the
most recent numbers fresh from our friends in the government. Perhaps Maryland
has slipped into a quantum corridor existing outside the rest of humanity or
maybe our physicians are better at misdiagnosing than the rest of the world.
Drugs entrenched in the bloodstreams of our kids that are legally
overprescribed have familiar names: Ritalin, Adderall, Concerta, Dexedrine and
other amphetamine derivatives combined with their psychotropic counterparts the
emphatic changes on children’s behavior is dramatic. Normal variants of
youthful behavior have been redefined by a society that bathes in drugs, legal
or otherwise. Media has reported that the panel that defines and refines
psychiatric diagnoses in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manuel of Mental
Disorders has a profound involvement with pharmaceutical corporations. Claims
that nearly 100% of the 170 member group is attached in some manner to this industry
are unconfirmed, yet intriguing. Maryland’s Board of Pharmacy has not weighed
in on this subject. Worse, the Maryland Board of Physicians has remained
distant and detached on this subject. They have promulgated no rules,
regulatory structure or entertained studying this significant problem affecting
tens of thousands of children. Instead they chase physicians for paper
compliance issues or fabricate standards of care to sanction and even revoke
medical licenses. This is a tragedy in the making and should be addressed
immediately. Perhaps the Maryland State Legislature should act, because their own
administrative authorities have failed to take the lead, especially since the
state is paying to poison these children who have been left behind. Mark Davis

Scott Walker had a tremendous
victory in Wisconsin on June 5. He retained his governorship overcoming union
thugs, orchestrated protests by the entitlement crowds, a smear campaign, rowdy
civil servants, and a bevy of left wing politicians including Maryland’s
intrusive Governor. Their collective message was clear we have rights you don’t.
Governor Walker inherited a state dripping in red ink caused by zealous raids
on the state treasury by those who were riding high at the taxpayer’s expense.
Walker introduced a new concept into a state ruled by a mobocracy, fiscal
responsibility, something lacking in Maryland. During Governor Walker’s brief
tenure the deficits quickly abated utilizing sensible accounting practices and
logical regulatory structure to bring Wisconsin back from economic oblivion.
Civil servants will now have to pay for a small portion of their benefits.
Expansive state pensions will not be so expansive anymore. Unions will not be
able to extort dues from civil servant, now it is voluntary. Other measures are
in the works that relinquish union grasp on every dollar that goes into state
coffers. Martin O’Malley brought shame to Maryland by participating in event
that was sending Wisconsin into bankruptcy. Deficit spending was O’Malley’s
message to anyone who would listen to his dry rhetoric. Perhaps the powerful in the Free State will learn
from the recent tragedy that unfurled in Wisconsin, you cannot spend what you
don’t have. Every time O’Malley and the Bushes feel the need to spend more on
state workers, Maryland deadbeats and programs to nowhere they stick it to the
taxpayer. Perhaps it is time for the taxpayer to stick to them. Vote these
ancient wrecks out office and bring some conservative blood back into Maryland
body politic. As I noted in Demons of Democracy lawyers have no special
training or intellectual abilities to take on the task on managing governments
either at the state or national levels, O’Malley and Obama respectively prove
this thesis. Maryland’s continued assault on the taxpayer is exemplified by the
recent special session of the Legislature. Where is the reduction in expenses,
they don’t exist! O’Malley and the Bushes survive in their elected positions
because the entitlement crowd and those sustained at the taxpayer expense continually
return them to Annapolis. Perhaps a referendum to limit state expenditures
should be put to a vote. Maryland’s leaders are incapable or unwilling to
curtail bloated programs that feed the indolent, lazy and undeserving.
Wisconsin was a wakeup call to the nation. Sadly Maryland is still in a coma. Mark
Davis author of the forthcoming book, Obamacare: Dead on Arrival. platomd@gmail.com

Lust may have been John Edwards’ ultimate
downfall, yet tragic circumstances he inflicted on others through his court
performances will carry greater weight in the eyes of God. Edwards’ masterful
presentations before dumb down juries garnered him and his clientele tens of
millions. Deceit, misrepresentation and theatrics by him turned faultless
doctors into vilified wretches. Frivolous medical malpractice suits were Edwards’
specialty. His creativity in the courtroom had no moral bounds. Children born
with cerebral palsy were suddenly the fault of a physician who presided over
their birth. Flawed science was presented in a clever fashion blended with a
histrionic bent that charged juries emotions to grant the funds he sought. People
no long committed suicide on their own, now psychiatrists were at fault. Risky
surgeries that did not always find their way to positive results found
themselves presented to eager juries waiting to bring down those bad doctors
whose only crime was their acceptance of the case. Edwards’ war on the medical
profession created a health care crisis in North Carolina unparalleled in the
History of the Tar Heel State. Malpractice insurance rates had a meteoric rise
during the peak of Edwards judicial performances. As a result many medical specialists
abandoned their perches to save themselves from the victimization that frequented
North Carolina courtrooms under Edwards’ jurisdiction. Stories emerged that
emergency patients could not obtain appropriate care in a timely manner,
resulting in the worst outcomes. Women in labor found local health units and
hospitals without obstetric support forcing them to travel extreme distances to
deliver their newborns, some never finishing the journey. John Edwards has no
conscience about the negative effects he had on the Tar Heel State’s health
system. His interest was twofold: bleed insurance companies dry and destroy as
many physicians’ careers as possible. John and his deceased wife were both
adamant supporters of Obamacare, as long as they did not have to participate in
its tenets. Mrs. Edwards publicly stated the virtues of Obama’s monstrous
health reforms, while running to the best hospital in the nation to treat her
cancer, Massachusetts General. Duke University could have provided the same or
better care for her, but you know elitists. Crimes not measured by John Edwards
recent trial, reflect poorly on a legal system long overdue for an overhaul.
The Department of Justice never wanted to find Edwards guilty. Instead they
wanted a show trial to display even the most powerful are not above the law. Edwards’
crimes are not one of passion but one of a ravenous greed which made him a
multi-millionaire at the expense of the health of thousands. Proper decorum
would not allow me to express my true feelings about the detriment this lawyer has
done to the innocent. Edwards is now free to perform more legal miracles, who
will he victimize next? Mark Davis MD author of Demons of Democracy, a book
that documents the evils of the legal system and its former sentinels. Platomd@gmail.com
